Can a new way of walking slow knee arthritis?

NCT ID NCT06208631

Summary

This study is testing whether people with knee osteoarthritis can learn to walk differently using haptic feedback—gentle vibrations that guide muscle use. Researchers want to see if changing how a specific calf muscle works during walking can reduce stress on the knee joint. The goal is to see if this new walking strategy could help slow down the progression of arthritis.
